Beijing Maker develops an interesting spider robot Xpider with 3D printing

Recently, the Beijing-based maker team Roboeve developed a cute little robot Xpider with 3D printing technology . The small robot is small in size - 85 mm high and weighs only 150 grams - and is called the world's smallest in the world by Roboeve. Programming the robot. In addition, it offers a lot of interesting features, such as integrated camera and face recognition.

It is understood that Roboeve is composed of six newly graduated robot lovers. They found that spider robots on the market have many unsatisfactory things, such as being too big to play on their desks or ugly lines; using a lot of steering gears, patience during installation and debugging; weak processing power Basically rely on the servo controller + single-chip microcomputer; more importantly, it costs money, and the light skeleton will cost more than 400 yuan. To this end they decided to design a spider robot that satisfied them.

Of course, the development process of XPider is long. Roboeve started in August 2015 and was originally modified on the basis of a ready-made children's toy robot Nerf TerraDrone. The team members made constant modifications and iterations. In six months, they made a 26-page design with more than 40 parts in each design. Now they have more than 500 3D models related to spiders.

It is reported that the main function of XPider comes from its eyes - integrated camera, and is equipped with Intel's Edison motherboard and Curie chip. The robot can be controlled by a smartphone or gamepad and provides the user with an interesting perspective from the micro-robot to observe the world. In addition, the robot can transfer the images it captures to your phone screen.

In addition to recording images, Xpider understands the environment around it thanks to a powerful recognition program, SmartNode. This program allows the robot to recognize nearby objects and even faces. This recognition means that you can set the XPider to "roam mode" and let it automatically explore the surrounding space.

Obviously, the robot can also identify its owner. Therefore, it can welcome you by jumping a dance at your desk when you see you, and warn when someone is approaching you. I have to admit that this is a very cute robot companion. In addition, Xpider can also be trained through a simple drag-and-drop neural network.

Do you really want to get it? Fortunately, Roboeve has planned to launch crowdfunding for this cute Xpider robot at Kickstarter later this month. But they also shared Xpider's 3D files and build tutorials through Wevolver.

Histological Microtome

The Histological microtome is widely used in hospitals, biomedicine, life science, agriculture and forestry, education, health and epidemic prevention, animal husbandry and veterinary, scientific research institutions, laboratories and other departments at all levels.

It is our latest model that integrates the advantages of precision, stability and simplification which manual microtome entails, also have the specimen retraction counted by stepping motor and spindle accurate. It is one of best model for histology and pathology preparation.
